Broken Promises

Broken promises are all I ever get
 My feelings don't count when your mind is set
 Broken promises you keep throwing my way.
 Broken promises always seem to ruin my day
 I hold on to hope that you will change 
 Other people think my loving you sometimes is so derange
 You just always assume I will be there
 These broken promises are not fare
 Coming last too all your friends
 Broken promises yes it does offend
 Broken promises, forgetting anniversaries, and treating me like crap
 I've put up with it all 
 Broken promises feel like to me a slap 
 Broke promises over and over is insane
 It's causing so much strain
 Things have got to change fast
 He does not see his future is going to be left in his past
 Time is slipping bye so quick
 Little by little I'm loosening this fight to keep him
 It's making me sick
 His chances at keeping me now unless he changes are skim
 Will broke promises and his friends ruin what we once had
 I hope not because if so I'll be very sad
